It's been a rough few weeks, trying to get used to being a project manager in this firm. It's very different from being a project manager in industry, not the least reason of which is that leading a bunch of clever consultants is just very exhausting.

I really need to take a vacation after this. Even if I don't go anywhere past the boundaries of our new apartment, it would be nice to re-center and re-balance myself in terms of what kind of person I'd like to become in the near term.
